for dev purpose i incidentally chose my app bundle identifier to
contain a "/" character. The unexpected result is that the prefs are
now written in a subfolder of the ~/Library/Preferences folder. This
seems very natural due to the "/" but I can't see it documented
somewhere. Is it safe to use this feature (for a suite of related
applications), I am afraid of other side effects I am not aware of.
I would not rely on that behavior. CFPreferences is interpreting the
bundle ID with the slash in it and creating the subdirectory as a side
effect of the way it's parsing your bundle ID.
I'm not completely sure where the bug here is, but I wouldn't rely on
this behavior in the future (at least from a preferences standpoint).
